Sony Computer Entertainment has announced a PlayStation 2 sequel to Gun Parade March, a PlayStation adventure title that was released to Japan in 2000. Alfa System is developing the sequel, titled Gun Parade Orchestra Shiro no Shou ~ Aomori Penguin Densetsu ~ (White Chapter ~Legend of Aomori Penguin~).

The original Gun Parade March featured a unique battle system, AI-controlled characters and plenty of freedom, and early reports suggest that Orchestra will have all this and more. Players will make use of mechs in battle as they interact with the members of the 108th Security Unit working in Japan's snowy Hokkaido region.

Shiro no Shou is actually the first part of a trilogy. SCE will follow its release with Midori no Shou (Green Chapter) and Ao no Shou (Blue Chapter). Final names for these subsequent chapters have yet to be announced.

The first entry in the new Gun Parade trilogy will see Japanese release later this year.
